Octen launches $20 unlimited web search plan for AI agents
Octen, a San Francisco startup building search for AI agents, has added a $20 monthly plan for unlimited web searches, image search and its Pulse model, which locates web pages in about 10 milliseconds, VentureBeat reports. The 10 millisecond figure is the median server processing time, not the full round trip.
Pulse uses generative retrieval: a 4 billion parameter model outputs an identifier that maps to one of about 201 million known URLs, so it cannot invent addresses. Founder Kuan Zou previously led AI search at Alibaba Cloud. Octen, backed by Square Peg and Argor, says more than 5,000 developers have signed up.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?
Tensordyne
This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
